Top 5 Biggest Clubs in the World

In fact, that's a good debate too.

Which are the biggest clubs outside Spain, England, Germany, Italy and France?

I would say Ajax and Benfica are the big two. In fact, I'd say they're both bigger than any French club too.

Turkey and Greece have sheer passion in their fans for their biggest clubs.

Rangers and Celtic are big clubs if poor teams.

Yeah Windhook is right that Calciopoli highly accelerated it, but I think its decline (concurrent with the rise of the PL) was inevitable.

and created unbridgeable divide between Internazionale and Juventus.

Historically, Madrid is the biggest, than us, and Bayern. These 3 are clear imo. Italian teams used to follow for me, especially Milan and Juventus, but their advantage vs EPL sides is starting to disappear more and more.

Serie A used to be the best league. But it has dropped to distant 3rd and sometimes 4th for over two decades.

I think that from EPL only Pool and United are on level of Milan, Juve, Inter

And with United being in same, even deeper shit that only leaves Pool

And you are right, Pool is overtaking Milan as time goes by

But I think Milan has legends on its side. It's a big factor. Pool as great as it is didn't really have a lot of football legends playing there

You are right about Liverpool. They only have 1 title less than Milan and even more leagues, but still don't have that many atg players seems like.

Not as big as many clubs, but they have had Dalglish, Gerrard (even if I am not a fan of his) Souness, Hansen, Van Dijk, Salah, Suarez, Torres.

It's not as impressive as most other big clubs but it's still good. Plus, the main reason they don't have lots of superstars is their boot room philosophy - it's about the team rather than individual superstars.
